Oceanside Metal Detector Lost Ring

  • from Carlsbad (California, United States)

 

Theringfinders Metal Detecting Service in Oceanside Ca has helped Find and return a Diamond Ring.

July 17th I recieved a call 11:30 at night from a Gentleman named Anthony.He tells me his wife had lost her Diamond wedding Ring in the surf. I immediately got ready and was there in less than 20 min. I met him at the location and asked many questions for clues that may lead this Water search to a Fast and Precised Recovery for this Precious ring. Anthony explained to me he was not there on the beach when she lost it but thought for sure way out in the Surf.I then spent over 2hrs swinging,Dragging my scoop griding while overlapping my detector coil with no luck.

The next morning at 1:00am I arrived to search again for 2hrs and was able to rule out where this ring is Not.Confident in my equipment I know that This type of Gold ring I can pick up 2′ down in wet sand.I had already cross grided this large area and Dug all targets that were faint/break in the threshold. After these Minus tides searching twice while fighting the Ocean/Waves and Not to mention our Self defense awareness of it being 2:00am Alone knee to waist deep,pitch black with the homeless and rift raft type of people sleeping nearby Believe me,it ain’t easy ⚒

So I asked a Good friend also a local from Theringfinders to help hunt during the day time low tide on the upper bank/slope where I had not scanned over, just incase she wasn’t out that far or near the deep trough hole at the bottom of the beaches natural incline. John hughes was able meet the wife there during daylight with better details and exact location of when she felt the ring fall off.John also gave this needle in a hay stack a swing for 2 days in the blistering heat with no luck.After our vigorous 3 day search during king tides with Constructive waves and Non Constructive waves I had concluded this was a matter of timing.. So I decided to give this another shot in the dark then arrived at 4am the final day.

After just 20min into scanning I dug up This lost Diamond ring in the wetline just up the slope.The Ocean Is always Hungry and can eat your valuables.After such hard work it was a relief recoverying this Wedding ring and another Prime example that we Never give up!

FitBit Watch Lost at Hermosa Beach, CA…Found and Returned.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

I happened to go to local beach last night to do a little metal detecting to keep my skills sharp. I was working down the beach when I saw a group of about 8 people down a way, scurrying around the sand with their phones out and lights on. It looked like a desperate search, so I made my way over to them, and asked if I could help. I explained that I was with The Ring Finders, and we help people find things that they lost. They explained the watch had been on a towel, and then they were chased back by the incoming tide, and believed that is when they lost the watch.

I began my search where they thought they had lost the watch, and found a lot of bottle caps and a few coins. I kept up the grid with similar results. Then the young lady who originally pointed out where to start, realized that we needed to move North of our position after she noticed the trash cans they were in front of earlier. I continued my grid in the new area, working my way closer to the water, again finding more bottle caps and a few more coins. I got to where the water had come up over the edge when I got another good signal. This time it was the watch. Well there was a great hug given, and a lot of excitement. It was now about 10:00 PM, and I did not know how long they had been searching before I arrived, but they were very happy now. A great night out indeed!

I will work hard, using the most up to date metal detectors, to help you find what you thought might never be found again.

Cape Cod: Davy Jones held David Yurman hostage for 9 hours.

  • from Cape Cod (Massachusetts, United States)

A mother’s warning went unheeded – “Don’t take your wedding band to the beach.” Well a bit later Alex’s dive into the salty water provided the action that precipitated the need for a Ring Finder. Yes, his ring of only a year had slipped from his finger into the the depths of Davy Jones’ locker. Withing three hours I received a call for help. It seems all the searching by Alex and the Life Guards could not bring the ring out of the deep waters of Nantucket Sound. The tide was now some 2 feet higher than when the ring was lost and the sun was slipping closer to the horizon. It would be another 5 hours before a search could begin without scuba gear.

The sun set, the moon rose and the Big Dipper was now bright in the sky and Jim (my summer detecting comrade) and I were headed south into the darkness and shoulder deep water. As we began swinging our detectors caused flashes of blue light appeared underwater. The bio-luminescence was being given off when we touched small jellyfish. We also kept an eye to the northern sky, hoping to see the very unusual occurrence of the appearance of the Northern Lights as far south as Cape Cod.

Unfortunately we did not sees the Northern Lights, but Jim did rescue David Yurman from the grip that Davy Jones had on him. Jim’s bright LED light caused the diamonds to sparkle brighter than the stars and the circle of gold to shine heavenly against a bed of sea shells in his steel bucket. Now there was nothing more to do except notify Sandy (Alex’s mother) that the recovery had been made and a meeting for the return set.

The return was delayed due to Cape Cod traffic, but the wait was well worth it for everyone. Jim and I had a chance to pass on information about metal detecting, a few stories, and return the ring. As a Thank You gift, Sandy had brought some very special and delicious cookies, which were shared with Eleanor as she was the one that gave Sandy my contact information. Sandy will pass the ring onto Alex on their next meeting. Until then pictures are of the ring and three smiles will fill the void held for Alex’s smile which I am sure matches that of his wife’s because of The Ring Finders.

Lost Gold & Diamond Engagement Ring at Ala Moana Beach…FOUND!!!

  • from O‘ahu (Hawaii, United States)


This ring find began while I was on the hunt for a Silver Heirloom ring at Ala Moana Beach Park. I was hunting the shoreline rocks when a gentleman came over to me and asked if I could find a young ladies ring that just fell off in about waist deep water. Knowing this other ring find was going to require clear water and scuba I said sure I’ll be right over. There were about 20 people in the murky water diving down looking for the ring thinking the sun might glint off the diamond. I couldn’t even see my coil in the water. High tide and at the end of the day this beach is cloudy with barely 1 foot visibility. I went in the water to meet the young lady and found out the whole group were members of the Triathlete Club « Boca Hawaii ». I found Kristen and her husband Brad who live in Honolulu and are from Buffalo, New York. While Kristen was doing some swim training she went to adjust her Engagement Ring and it fell off into the murky water and disappeared. I started a grid search but so many people were in the way I asked Brad if he and Kristen could remain in the water and have everyone else clear the area. The evacuation went off without a hitch and I had Brad & Kristen be my grid markers as we did a proper search without all the distractions. We searched from East to West and on about the 7th leg no more then a few feet from Kristen I got a great tone and in one scoop I saw Kristen’s ring. I walked over to her and let her pull the ring out of the scoop. She was so happy and shocked at the same time and tears began to flow. Another successful recovery and for such a wonderful couple. Aloha to Kristen & Brad.

Lost Property Irons (markers) Found in Southfield Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

This adventure got started when this nice lady contacted me after finding the ringfinders site.

She asked if I could find property irons as she was preparing to have a fence installed for her dogs.

I said sure I will come out and when on site I set up the MXT and got a good signal from the property pins.

It was nice to see her happy as I showed her the irons, and soon, hers dogs can roam freely around the property!

As a ex land surveyor,  I was thrilled to find these all in good condition and unaltered since they were set in the early 1960’s.

Diamond Engagement and Wedding Ring Set Lost at Manhattan Beach, CA…Found and Joyously Returned.

  • from Redondo Beach (California, United States)

I received an email from Pierra this morning explaining how she had lost her engagement and wedding rings the evening before. She had them « safely tucked away », when her small child apparently opened up the purse and dumped them into the sand. They were unable to find them, but did not contact me until this morning. This worried me, because I know that this beach is meticulously cleaned by the county daily, and I feared the rings may have been swept up by the mechanical sifting machines. Her husband called, and I agreed to meet Pierra at the spot, because I know that not everything happens as we think.

When I got to the area, and was shown by Pierra where they had been sitting, I was encouraged because I could see that the sifting machines had gone through the area, but not where she had been sitting. I began to search where she showed me, and found a dime. I made a few more passes when Pierra came over to say that she thought the area might be a bit more South of my search area because of some trash she had recognized from the day before. I then lined up in that spot and began a new grid. After a few more passes, I got a good signal and dug. I checked my scoop and saw a real nice diamond band, so I asked her how many rings were involved; she said two. I scanned the remainder of the sand I had removed, and recovered her engagement ring as well. She was very happy, and with great joy to have her rings back on her finger. It was a great opportunity to see such a wonderful smile, and to know that after a tough night’s sleep last night, tonight’s sleep for her will be sweet.

 

If you lose your ring or other metal item of value, call as soon as possible. I will work hard, using the most up to date metal detectors, to help you find what you thought might never be found again.

Low tide hunt… Kayakers wedding ring found!

  • from Seattle (Washington, United States)

FOUND IT!

Last week, a kayaker lost his wedding ring after slipping and falling into the bay while launching at the shoreline during low tide. After he and some others tried searching for it this week with no success, I hit the beach this weekend to try my best to reunite him with with his precious ring.

Good information is key to a successful hunt, and I asked him to get some satellite photos where he was, and circle the place he thought it could be. I headed to the beach before I got any answer, and searched anyway. I did my best to guess based on other factors, where I thought it could be.

I hunted for some time before I realized I missed the email, and he had sent me info and pictures that were key to finding it.

He wrote: « I will say another ring finder did a search of the area on Thursday and was unable to find anything. The tide at this beach is enormous. Probably 80ish feet of beach disappears at high tide. Looks like low tide is at 3:48pm this afternoon, if you do still want to look. I will attach some images that may help. The image with the green kayak at the shoreline is where I slipped and it must have come off my finger. But the tide could have taken it anywhere. The big tree stump doesn’t seem to move as well as the flat and curved driftwood I highlight in the image. I was between these two landmarks circled in red at the shoreline where you can see the other kayak in the background. The ring is made of palladium by the way, a member of the platinum family. The tide was somewhere around midway between high and low when I fell in. It will be much further out, as you will see, at 3:48 than it was in this photo. »

He also provided me with a crucial picture that he had taken that day. In it you can see the area he launched from, and some static landmarks.

After hunting another 45 mins or so, I FOUND IT!

Remember, time is of the essence when it comes to finding your precious belongings! Don’t give up hope, and give me a call or email me please! I want to help you find your rings, and your smiles!

Good info was the key!

Lowtide success!

Saved from Elliot Bay!

Lost Property Irons (Markers) and Sprinkler Heads Found in Grosse Ile Michigan

  • from Detroit (Michigan, United States)

Not ALL Treasures are Gold and Silver!

This nice gentleman called me asking if I could find some lost items on his property. The house was built in 1876 and I really got excited as I have detected on old home sites and found some cool things. He explained that he had his fence permit approved and he needed the property irons and sprinkler heads that were covered over found before the fence installation and other construction projects at the house.  After I got on site I was impressed with how magnificent those old homes are. I used my Tesoro sidewinder no disc and located the items requested and received permission to detect the whole property at a later date! And the owner is interested in detecting as well!
